About Us

As the largest commercial cryogenic processor in the world, we deliver significantly improved end products and significantly decreased manufacturing costs to our customers through our three component service offering, which includes:

  • Cutting-edge, patented and trade secret technology customized for each customer’s unique needs.
  • Highly data-driven research and product testing capabilities.
  • Expert operational consulting capabilities to facilitate efficient and inexpensive integration of our process into our customers’ existing manufacturing processes.

Who We Work With

  • Most typically, we partner with large manufacturers and retailers, but any company that makes and/or sells a product whose useful life and/or efficacy is compromised from surface wear is a potential customer. In addition, any manufacturer with significant perishable tooling expense is a potential customer.
  • Customer segment examples include:
    - Power Tool Accessory Manufacturers
    - Surgical Equipment Manufacturers
    - Perishable Tooling Users
    - Major Retailers with Private Brands

What We Do

  • We complete a diagnostic phase to ensure a true understanding of each prospect’s needs.
  • We complete a prospect development phase, which consists of developing custom and proprietary COLDfire profiles and executing relevant, statistically-significant application tests to determine our real ability to improve the prospect’s products.
    - Testing is jointly developed and executed by COLDfire and the prospect or by these two parties and a certified third party lab.
  • We seamlessly integrate our process into our customers’ manufacturing processes.
  • We continuously develop new profiles to improve existing products we treat and to identify new product opportunities for each customer.

How We Do It

  • We have a deep and talented team of cryogenic & mechanical engineers, metallurgists, operations and statistics experts.
  • Our team of professionals works in a consultative fashion with each prospect/customer to execute every component of our service offering.
  • We often work with established third-party labs for application testing as well as engineering universities for microstructural analyses on various products.

Our primary gating function to establishing a relationship with a prospect is our ability to demonstrate a positive performance improvement on their products. If we can’t improve a prospect’s products, we excuse ourselves from the sales cycle. Up to this point, a prospect has spent little (if any) funds on the project and invested minimal time. We establish long-term customer relationships by continuously delivering on each component of our service offering.
